Toshiba Thrive 16GB hits bargain bin, $280 today only

The Toshiba Thrive 10" Android Honeycomb tablet has been making the rounds over the past few weeks and hitting all of those deals sites but today we have an even better offering. The almost famous woot.com has the 10" 16GB tablet on sale for an excellent price of just $279 and $5 shipping.

In case you didn't know, the Thrive might not be the thinnest or remotely close to being the prettiest tablet around -- but it does have a slew of ports and options making it a viable option for those heavy with multimedia and gaming. Here at Android Community we use its full array of USB and HDMI ports to stream games like Riptide GP and Shadowgun to our HDTV and then use the Logitech game controller for an even better gaming experience. Hands-on demonstrations can be seen in the timeline of links below.

The deal is for a refurbished model, but for $279 you'll get a 10.1" Android 3.2 Honeycomb tablet with an NVIDIA dual-core Tegra 2 processor speeding along at 1.0 GHz, 1GB of RAM, a pair of cameras and like mentioned above -- all the ports one would ever need. With WiFi and an SD slot you'll never have to worry about running out of internal storage either. Check out our review linked to below and then hurry and make up your mind as this deal wont last for long. Woot deals are "daily" so it will only be available for a short time.
